Telkom 2

PT Telkom, Jakarta, Indonesia, has awarded Orbital Sciences a contract for a
telecommunications satellite, Telkom 2, to be launched in late 2004. The satellite will be
positioned in geostationary orbit at 118°E, replacing Palapa B4.
The US$73 million satellite will be based on Orbital's Star-2 platform, carrying 24 C-band transponders
and designed for a 15-year in-orbit life.
